ELITE RACING - Champions best friend
The new 2010-2011 Alpina ECL Classic Boot adds insulation to the 2009-2010 version, adding a little warmth to what was the only flaw in the previous generation. Everything else about this boot remains, unchanged, which is great, because it is one of our favorites with a buttery smooth kick, amazing stability and great fit.
Out-of-the-box thinking sums up their design concept. The Alpina R&D team have been diligently working on this project for well over three years, studying athletic footwear from literally all the sports. They investigated new materials, new techniques of manufacturing and new technologies. Then they focused their energies on combining totally new slip materials, a whole new approach to fit, lacing, and a dynamic new shape to the cuff on skate boots.
The result of this is the Elite series that delivers the closest integration of foot to boot to ski imaginable. They provide a feeling that is like having your foot directly attached to the ski. The fit is the most precise, comfortable second skin racing that has ever been brought to the market.
The Elite Carbon Classic (ECL) is incredibly light, with a buttery smooth sole that gives you the best feel for the ski underfoot we've ever experienced. The shoe last provides superb lateral and torsional support, but moves easily with the soft sole. When lacing this boot, take care not to overtighten them, as the lacing system is so powerful it is easy to overdo it and cut off circulation.
